<p align=center><b>Release 4.5: --enable-pthread_self</b></p>
<p>In previous releases, the --enable-pthread_self configuration option was
used to force Berkeley DB to use the POSIX pthread pthread_self function to
identify threads of control (even when Berkeley DB was configured for
test-and-set mutexes).  In the 4.5 release, the --enable-pthread_self
option has been replaced with the
<a href="../../ref/build_unix/conf.html#--enable-pthread_api">--with-enable-pthread_api</a> option.  This option has the same effect as
the previous option, but configures the Berkeley DB build for a POSIX pthread
application in other ways (for example, configuring Berkeley DB to use the
pthread_self function).</p>
